VIERA Link “HDAVI Control”, based on the control functions provided by HDMI which is an industry
standard known as HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), is a unique function that we have
developed and added. As such, its operation with other manufacturers’ equipment that supports HDMI
CEC cannot be guaranteed.
Refer to individual manuals for compatibility information. About applicable equipment, consult your local
Panasonic dealer.
HDMI cable
This function needs an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable. Non-HDMI-compliant cables cannot be utilized.
It is recommended that you use Panasonic’s HDMI cable. Recommended part number:
RP-CDHG15 (1.5 m)
RP-CDHG30 (3.0 m)
RP-CDHG50 (5.0 m)
Preparations

Technical Information
Aspect Ratio
Updating the software system (DVB mode)
The optimum size and aspect can be chosen, and you can enjoy finer images. (p. 13)
■Auto: Auto aspect determines the best aspect ratio to use to fill your screen. It does this using a four step process
to determine if the picture being viewed is a widescreen picture.
If Auto aspect detects a widescreen signal it switches into the appropriate 16:9 or 14:9 widescreen mode. If Auto
aspect does not detect a widescreen signal then this advanced TV enhances the picture for optimum viewing pleasure.
The text shown on the screen indicates how Auto aspect determined which ratio to use:
“WIDE” appears in the top left of the screen if a widescreen identification signal (WSS) is found or a signal found
through a SCART terminal. Auto aspect switches to the appropriate 16:9 or 14:9 widescreen ratio. This function
will also work in any aspect mode. “Auto” appears in the top left of the screen if black stripes above and below
the picture are detected. Auto aspect chooses the best ratio and expands the picture to fill the screen. This
process can take several minutes, depending on the darkness of the picture.
